Concrete Removal Services in the Greater NYC Area
Concrete can be one of the toughest materials to remove from any property. Whether it is a cracked driveway, a cracked and crumbling patio, or leftover construction debris, heavy concrete can quickly become a serious obstacle. At Lightning Junk Removal, we provide reliable concrete removal services throughout the Greater NYC area, including the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Riverdale, and nearby communities such as Yonkers, New Rochelle, Mamaroneck, Mt. Vernon, and more.
From small residential projects to larger commercial jobs, we handle the lifting, concrete demolition, hauling, and disposal of unwanted concrete so you do not have to.
What Is Concrete Removal?
Concrete removal is the process of breaking up and hauling away unwanted or damaged concrete from a property. This may include:
- Old or cracked driveways
- Broken sidewalks and walkways
- Concrete patios and slabs
- Garage floors
- Parking lot sections
- Concrete steps or small foundations
- Leftover construction or demolition debris
We work with many different concrete surfaces, including concrete patios, slabs, and pads. The work often involves assessing the thickness of the concrete in each area so we can choose the right concrete-breaking tools for the job.
Concrete is extremely heavy and difficult to manage without the right tools and manpower. Our professional concrete removal helps clear the area quickly and safely so the space can be reused, repaired, or redesigned.
Residential Concrete Removal
Homeowners across the Greater NYC area often deal with deteriorating or unsafe concrete. Over time, surface cracks, frost heave, and general wear can damage concrete surfaces, making them uneven, cracked, or hazardous. In some cases, reinforced concrete around a hot tub pad, steps, or porch area can create structural issues that are hard to fix without demolition.
Our residential concrete removal can help with:
- Driveways and parking pads
- Front walks and entry steps
- Backyard patios and slabs
- Old shed pads or hot tub pads
- Basement or garage floor sections that need to be replaced
We carefully evaluate the slab thickness, square footage, and condition before we start. Depending on the project, we may use concrete saws, a demolition hammer, a pry bar, and other concrete-breaking tools to cut and lift sections. For reinforced concrete that contains wire mesh or rebar, we account for those materials during demolition so removal goes smoothly.
We break up the concrete, load the concrete debris into our truck or a roll-off dumpster on-site, and haul it away, leaving the area clear and ready for your next project. This service is especially helpful when paired with other offerings such as junk removal, construction debris removal, shed removal, hot tub removal, or light demolition.
Commercial Concrete Removal
Businesses and property managers across New York City, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Riverdale, Yonkers, and surrounding neighbourhoods often need fast and efficient concrete removal to keep operations running smoothly and properties safe. Commercial concrete surfaces, such as loading docks, walkways, and parking lots, can develop surface cracks, settlement, or frost heave, which may create hazards.
Our commercial concrete removal can support:
- Parking lot and loading area repairs
- Sidewalk and entryway replacement
- Restaurant and retail renovations
- Warehouse floor sections
- Office and commercial building upgrades
On larger projects, we may work alongside other concrete removal companies, contractors, or site managers. Equipment such as skid steers, hydraulic breakers, and pneumatic breakers can speed up the demolition of thicker slabs. We always pay attention to underground utilities and utility lines to help protect drain pipes and other buried services during demolition.
We can also combine concrete removal with commercial junk removal, warehouse cleanouts, office cleanouts, restaurant cleanouts, and property management services to handle large projects in a single visit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of concrete can you remove?
We can remove the most common types of residential and commercial concrete, including:
Driveways and parking pads
Sidewalks and walkways
Patios and outdoor slabs
Small foundations and shed pads
Steps, stoops, and entry platforms
Leftover construction concrete and broken slabs
We work with standard and reinforced concrete, including slabs that contain wire mesh. If you are unsure about a specific structure, slab thickness, or concrete pad, give us a call at 718-737-7161, and we can let you know what is possible.
Do I need to break up the concrete before you arrive?
No. You do not need to break up the concrete in advance. Our concrete removal service includes breaking the slab into manageable pieces, lifting it, loading it, and hauling it away. We bring the demolition hammer, concrete saws, pry bar, and other tools needed for concrete demolition. If the concrete has already been broken up or cut with a diamond saw or another tool, this can sometimes speed up the process, but it is not required.
Can you remove concrete and other debris at the same time?
Yes. We can remove concrete along with other non-hazardous debris and junk, such as:
General junk and clutter
Construction debris
Wood, metal, and other non-hazardous building materials
Items from cleanouts or light demolition
We can combine concrete removal with services like junk removal, shed removal, deck removal, hot tub removal, and various cleanouts to handle everything in one visit. For large volumes, concrete debris can be loaded into a roll-off dumpster or our trucks for efficient hauling.
Are there any materials you cannot take with the concrete?
We do not accept hazardous waste. If you have materials you suspect are hazardous, they need to be handled by a specialized provider equipped and approved to manage them. Standard non-hazardous construction debris, metal, wood, and general junk are usually fine and can often be removed at the same time as the concrete, depending on the job and the square footage involved.

Angel cleaned out an entire 1BR apt for me in an afternoon – 2 truckloads at a very good, transparent flat rate – even did the carpet and nails. Couldnt recommend more – clean, efficient, and honest.
SSteven Turville -
These gentlemen answered my last minute call with friendly, super fast, same day service. They went above and beyond for me and my family when we had a death in the family and needed a last minute cleaning out of a storage unit. I can’t recommend these gentlemen highly enough. NG
NNoel G. -
We hired them for a tough job in our backyard. Angel was very professional from our very first interaction. He gave us a prompt estimate, was responsive, punctual, fast to schedule, and thorough.rnrnNot only did they haul away a chain link fence, metal, wood, and heavy concrete pavers from our backyard through the basement and up the stairs – they also had to clear and haul construction debris that was blocking the door they needed to go through (picture attached).rnrnNo job seemed too big or too small. We dealt with competitors that wasted our time (no-shows, late, disappeared, or focused on issues instead of partnering with us to find solutions). We both have demanding careers, are new landlords, and have a toddler – so finding a company that respects your time and goes the extra mile is incredibly valuable.

These guys are fantastic and Angel is running a great business. They came to get some junk for me, the price was fair, the communication was good and they even cleaned up after removal! Don’t look anywhere else these are the guys to use for your junk removal. The ratings aren’t wrong!
